AHMEDABAD: Rubbishing speculation about retirement from the IPL after guiding Chennai Super Kings to a fifth title, Mahendra Singh Dhoni said he will play again in the next season to reward the fans for their love.
From the beginning of this season there was speculation that this would be Dhoni’s last season. The way the audience showered him with love at every ground, the possibility of this seemed to be stronger.
After a five-wicket win over Gujarat Titans in the final, when Dhoni was asked if this was his last season, he said, “Looking at the circumstances, this is the best time for me to retire.” It is very easy for me to say that I am leaving now but it is difficult to work hard for the next nine months and come back and play one more season.
He said, “The body has to cooperate. The way the Chennai fans have showered me with love, it will be my gift to them that I play one more season. I should also do something for the love and passion they have shown.” Dhoni said, ”This is the last phase of my career. It started from here and the whole stadium was chanting my name. It happened in Chennai as well but I will come back and play as much as I can.
